Happy Birthday Miles!

We are alive, and all moved in! House projects, unpacking and kids have kept me away from the blog for far too long. But the computer was finally plugged back in last week and here we are! I don't have any house pics yet but am hoping to get on that this week sometime, so stay tuned. Instead I'm here to catch you up on non house related life stuff. First up is Miles' first birthday, which happened just 24 hours before we moved!
Poor kid, he got pretty minimal excitement this year and I'm feeling pretty guilty about it. On his actual birthday, august 23 we did the normal stuff but also introduced Miles to his very first sugar (sorry Jodi, the mommy guilt made me do it!) in the form or a confetti cake cupcake.


 yup, he loved it! So much so that I couldn't' get a good pic before he shoveled it into his face.


 Later that night, we went to the beach where I got this pic, just 1 week before little miles was born.


I wanted to recreate this shot, just with Miles actually visible. But there was no sunset that night, which made it pretty difficult. Thanks to my friends Mike and Jodi we were able to salvage the night and get this one.

Thank goodness for pretty clouds and very patient friends! My goal is to go back to this park every year around his birthday for an updated shot, hopefully the sunset will be back next year.


 And this one just because I'm obsessed with this guys hair, there is so much of it now. I flip flop on giving him a haircut as he gets called a girl every single day! I'm not quite ready though so the hair stays.

Next week we will have his delayed birthday party/housewarming so hopefully that will cure my mommy guilt...probably not.
